You posted this about a month ago and got excellent, thoughtful advice. These posts should be combined. Repeated postings don't necessarily get different or better answers.

I'm not sure i can offer good advice here but maybe try watching how your partner reacts when you do something nice for her and take enjoyment/ pleasure in that instead of expecting something in return. ie: relationships are not necessarily about you do something for me and i will do something for you right? There is definately a lot of pleasure to be had by helping other people and making them happy.

Maybe try to chill out a bit generally and take jokes as jokes. I know thats hard sometimes though.
